Poured into a tulip glass. An almost transparent amber with a half finger of head.
Smells like a pine forest, lots of pine. There’s some grapefruit and lemon backing it up too. Oh and the malt makes an appearance at the end... lightly caramel smelling.
The hops come rolling in strong and then quickly fade. It was like a big splash... and then it’s gone. Kinda fun. The bitterness fades to a crisp malty flavor, not sweet either. It’s different and I like it.
At least moderate carbonation; fits well. Lighter body, a creaminess to it.
It’s a different IPA than I’m used to, but I enjoyed it. It’s not the "smash-your-face-with-hops" IPA, but a nice IPA that likes to be admired and enjoyed for its other attributes

12oz bottle poured to sniffer.A weak ipa overall. Very malty taste with more hop flavor and aroma to be desired. Aroma is lacking the hops citrus/pine you’d expect and you can smell the alcohol on the initial first whiff. Decent beer in general but doesn’t live up to the style of beer it’s representing
